".....shhhh......relax....don't worry......shhh...."

I open my eyes and see a very old looking lady smiling at me. I can't see her face clearly, but she looks familiar. She is covered by a black clock and her face just seems blurred.

"Who....who are you?" I ask confused as to why she is here in the same room as me.

She just smiled at me and then she leaves the room.

"WAIT!" I try to get up but my hands are cuffed. What the..???

I struggle to get them off but obviously, it's not working.

I soon black out again and for two seconds I feel like a wave of energy flows into my body.

I open my eyes again and groan in pain. I am in a white bed and the school assistant Beth comes to me in a hurry.

"Hi, how are you feeling?"

Instead of answering, I just groan again and throw my head back in the pillow.

"So..I'll take that as a "I'm not ok at all." She giggles at the end. I just nod my head with my eyes closed.

She clears her throat once she realizes I'm not in for a talk and starts speaking.

"Here. Take these pills. You hit your temple pretty hard. I had to wrap some baandage around your head. But you are fine now."she speaks up and then turns to give me some pills. I guess they were pain killers or something.

"Excuse me...but, how did I end up here?" All I remember was me jogging and then suddenly someone yelled something and after that I blacked out.

"Oh. Some boys brought you here. They said they found you already passed out when they took you here."

"Aannndd...do you happen to know the boys names?" I ask curiosly.

"I am not sure but one of them was...what was 
it?...hmm...Jace...Joe...Jo....aaaah. yeah. Jason."

I remain shocked. Jason, brought me here. Doesn't sound like something he would normally do.

But there was another question in my head.

Before I blacked out, I was looking at some strange thing. That silhouette. What was that? Was I hallucinating? And then that lady. What is happening to me? And then the incident. Too many questions. My head is pounding.

"Thank you. For...taking care of me." I say as I slowly get out of the bed and make my way towards the door.

"My pleasure dear."she smiled at me.


I was heading back home while trying to answer all my questions. Where was the logic behind all this?

As I enter the house, I search for my mom but it looks like she's not here.

As I search futher around the house, there's no sign of my mother. I enter my room and when I close the door I scream a little and jump a little.

"Your mother left with my father to go on a dinner date or some bullshit like that. And she asked me to keep an eye on you." Jason smirks as he just lays on my bed carelessly.

I look at him in bewilderment.

"I...wha...No. You are not staying with  me most certainly not in my room!!!" I state a fact furiously.

"Whoo. Calm down cupcake. Do you think I want to be here? Instead of having fun with Angi, I have to babysit your ass and all I get in return is some cash." He rolls his eyes.

"Whatever. Just, get out of my room you idiot." I don't know how but when he is on my territory I suddenly feel confident. Like he isn't my bully. Although, it's weird to explain.

I go to him and try to push him out of the bed but with no results. Hey! He is muscly and I don't have  much force in my arms. Instead, he chuckles at my attempt to get him off my bed and grabs both of my hands and pulls me on top of him. I land on his toned chest and damn. The boy has nice abs. I admit it but I don't want him to know that. So I try to get off him but he keeps me there.

He smirks down at me and I just cringe. When he notices my bandage, his smirks drops and is replaced by a deep frown. He looks at me with apologetic eyes and does something that shocks me: he kisses my forehead. I wasn't expecting this. Oh well. We stay like that a couple of minutes, just staring at eachother when I get the power to get up and him being guard-off not having time pulling me back.

Once I am in front of him, I remember what I was doing in the first place.

"Now..*clears throat*...I want you to get up and leave because I am not a damn child and for sure don't need a nanny. And plus, I am very tired. I've had a shitty day and I just want to relax. So please just..ugh....let me at least relax when I'm at home." I say firmly so he can understand I am serious.

He looks at me with an unreadable expression and gets up. He gets past me and goes out of my room. I suppose downstairs. I honestly don't care right now.

I throw myself on the bed and fall into a deep slumber.
